Turned down the University of Pennsylvania and will be heading to the University of Washington in the fall. My decision was based largely on my family situation-- I have a young child and have a huge support system in Seattle. I was sad to turn down Penn, but I'm also excited for the UW, and know I made the right decision... My research interests are in stratification and health, and in racial health disparities.

Good luck bertiek-- hope you get your funding! Did you go to Recruitment Day? What are your research interests? I'm going to go to the University of Washington. I'm sad to turn down the Penn offer, but I have a young child and already live in Seattle where I have a huge support system of family and friends. I just know I'll be able to do my best possible work if my family is happy and that I can rely on my support network to help out with my kiddo... Still a little sad though I really liked Penn...

Just rejected my Penn offer-- hopefully that'll help someone on the waitlist for funding...

The recruitment days for Penn are next week... who is going? I'm excited for the visit and look forward to finally have all the information to make my decision...!
